Canadian Justice Minister and Attorney-General Jody Wilson-Raybould will discuss key Canadian themes and debates pertaining to international women’s day. These include the initiative “It’s time”, and legal reforms under way in Canada intended to improve the lives of women. The Minister will also speak to broader themes of inclusion and diversity, including in relation to Indigenous peoples. In Canada, this year’s theme for 8 March is “My feminism”, drawing attention to women’s individual pathways and experiences. Against this background, she will also provide insights into her personal feminist biography.
